The United States Coast Guard (USCG) and American Boat and Yacht Council (ABYC) are launching a new series of one-day events dedicated to mitigating the risk in designing and building recreational boats. The first event, USCG Risk Mitigation: Series 1—Regulations and Electrification, will be held virtually on Tuesday, November 9, 2021, and will focus on the transition to electric systems in recreational boats, including propulsion and battery power bank alternatives to generators.

The USCG Risk Mitigation Series is designed to be a regular event with interactive and in-depth discussions related to one general topic on a reoccurring basis. For more information, visit www.abycinc.org/riskmitigation.
